CAUTION

Children can be seriously injured
or strangled if a shoulder belt is
wrapped around their neck and the
safety belt continues to tighten.
Buckle any unused safety belts
behind the child restraint so
children cannot reach them. Pull
the shoulder belt all the way out of
the retractor to set the lock, if your
vehicle has one, after the child
restraint has been installed.

Notice: Do not let the LATCH
attachments rub against the
vehicle’s safety belts. This may
damage these parts. If necessary,
move buckled safety belts to
avoid rubbing the LATCH
attachments.

Do not fold the empty rear seat
with a safety belt buckled. This
could damage the safety belt or
the seat. Unbuckle and return the
safety belt to its stowed position,
before folding the seat.

1. Attach and tighten the lower

attachments to the lower
anchors. If the child restraint
does not have lower attachments
or the desired seating position
does not have lower anchors,
secure the child restraint with the
top tether and the safety belts.
Refer to your child restraint
manufacturer instructions and the
instructions in this manual.

1.1. Find the lower anchors for

the desired seating position.

1.2. Recline the seatback to the

full reclined position.

Make sure the second row
bench seatbacks are
aligned at the same angle
before placing the child
restraint on the seat.

Make sure the third row
bench seatbacks are both
upright before placing
the child restraint on
the seat.

1.3. Put the child restraint on

the seat.

1.4. Attach and tighten the lower

attachments on the child
restraint to the lower
anchors.

2. If the child restraint manufacturer

recommends that the top tether
be attached, attach and
tighten the top tether to the top
tether anchor, if the vehicle
has one. Refer to the child
restraint instructions and the
following steps:

2.1. Find the top tether anchor.

2.2. If the anchor is covered,

flip open the cover to
expose the anchor.
